How ı plot the piecewise function

Hi my main problem is i have a function f(t)=A , t1<t<t2

f(t)=0 , otherwise

t1=2 t2=6 A=2 how can ı plot this function

Answer 1

Try this:

A = 2;
f = @(t, t1, t2) A.*((t1 < t) & (t < t2));                  % Use ‘Logical Indexing’

t = linspace(0, 10);
t1 = 2;
t2 = 6;

figure
plot(t, f(t, t1, t2))
grid

its giving me that empty graph im new in matlab i cannot understand the problem

You have apparently written your own script file and saved it as ‘plot.m’.

Re-name it to ‘myPlot.m’, or to something that does not overshadow plot, or any other MATLAB functions.

Then my code should run without error.

This answer clearly works but you have defined some file as plot.m please change it or rename it

[Star Strider]

As a work-around (until you re-name your script), try this:

A = 2;
f = @(t, t1, t2) A.*((t1 < t) & (t < t2));                  % Use ‘Logical Indexing’
t1 = 2;
t2 = 6;

figure
fplot(@(t) f(t, t1, t2), [0 10])
grid

That should run without error.

Answer 2

Another possible approach:

A = 2;
t1=2;
t2=6;
syms t
f = piecewise(t>t1 & t<t2,A,0) ;                
fplot(f,[0 10])  % 0 to 10 represent the domain of the function

its saying piecewise is undefined or unexpected

type ver in command window , suspect you don't have symbolic math toolbox
